Tropical Carrot, Turmeric, and Ginger Smoothie

Pretty good. I used sweet potato and a small carrot. It was a bit off, so I added a couple spoons coconut milk (similar to oil idea of others), one banana, and pineapple (I didn't have any mango). Came out quit nicely after some doctoring!

Recommended. Peppery and sweet. Something different in the ole' vitamix.

This is a great way to use fresh turmeric. I followed the recipe, only adding half a teaspoon of coconut oil when blending. The spiciness of the turmeric really comes through well and balances nicely with the orange and carrot. A great refreshing drink !

Thanks, charmianentine - that is exactly what I was going to the comments to say. I was thinking that organic extra virgin coconut oil would be a good complement to this recipe. I also haven't tried it yet, but may for my next smoothie.

A health professional just reminded me that to get the health benefits of turmeric you have to have some oil in your recipe absorb the main beneficial ingredient. I have not made this yet but will add a bit of oil when I do. It sounds good. Could only comment if I rated the recipe.

I've made this at least ten times and absolutely love it! I make with fresh turmeric found at Whole Foods! Relish!
